Chapter 25 (1/2)

”F*ckin geezer... ” Marcus exploded with rage.

[That Old Hobo]

The system joined Marcus.

”I mean, how could he leave at a time like this?”

[Yea...Right when we came out of that hell hole]

Both of them cursed and bad-mouthed the Flame emperor, on the other side, The Old man was laying on the sand at a beach in Hawaii and sipping on a drink.

After going on for 2 hours nonstop of cursing Marcus finally settled down. He Made his way to the tree beside him and sat under its shade.

Now that he had got rid of his anger, the atmosphere felt calm and peaceful. A strong Gust of Wind blowed his fatigue away and he laid his head back on the wood with a sigh of relief.

[Ah, As a Guardian you ask Marcus?!, Currently you only have one main objective]

”And that is?”

[To protect the Earth from them]

”Can you please....tell me who 'Them' is now? I am the Guardian now and I think that's a reasonable question”

[AH, Marcus I was about to tell you about them later but I think you are ready]

”Ready...PERFECTLY”

[Hm, So here me carefully Marcus! Don't miss a detail]

”Okay”

Marcus shifted his pose and enthusiastically got ready to hear whatever the system had to say.

”Woah, So what's the beef between us Humans and...Gods?”

Marcus questioned with the curiosity span of a scientist. His eyes were sparkling and his face was twisted with curiosity.

[Ah Marcus, That's where I am getting to.....
